C.Biscuit97 Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 I think sometimes as fans we forget how hard it must be to fire someone who work so close with. People were unhappy with Canada for a while but I saw plenty of plays that could have been made by players that weren’t as well (Pickett has been so so bad). but the good thing is the new OCs can’t be worst.

I agree. Canada was bad, But Pickett has been terrible too. He is just inaccurate or missing reads. He has no pocket presence either.

Bob Jones Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 They’re still starting Kenny Pickett at QB though, right? So, not really worried about them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is just inaccurate or missing reads. He has no pocket presence either. I wanted to like him but he made me worried as a prospect. Mediocre measurables, baby hands. Older guy who had one good season in college. I thought he had backup all over him and he went in the first. You can only do so much with a limited qb. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a buddy who is a Pitt alum and fan, and was not crazy about him for those reasons. He’s looking like he has a Matt Schaub ceiling.

He is just inaccurate or missing reads. He has no pocket presence either. True. It's actually a great success story, getting to over .500 after 10 games with a QB this bad. https://www.post-gazette.com/sports/joe-starkey/2023/11/20/browns-mike-tomlin-matt-canada-najee-harris-jaylen-warren-diontae-johnson-george-pickens/stories/202311200046 “There’s literally nobody there. I’m so confused.” — Ben Roethlisberger, on the “Footbahlin” podcast, watching the only Pickett pass that traveled at least 20 yards from scrimmage, then watching it land with not a single player from either team close enough to appear on the television screen (likely the result of another miscommunication with Diontae Johnson). This is a disaster. I don’t care if the Steelers beat Jake Browning and the Bengals 12-9 next weekend. I don’t care if they beat the Patriots, Cardinals and Colts and sneak into the playoffs. This season is pointless (almost literally). This offense is a laughingstock. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sierra Foothills Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 45 minutes ago, Big Turk said: What?? Not even the Steelers never firing people during the season could save his job...there must have been some behind the scenes stuff going on as well... Very public complaining by the main offensive skill position players for most of the season. They had stopped trying to keep it in house. 19 minutes ago, Low Positive said: They had to. Najee Harris and George Pickens publically complained about the play calling. Pickens on Instagram/X and Harris in a post-game press scrum. Canada had lost the confidence of the players. WR Diontae Johnson was also quite publicly unhappy and went after one of the offensive coaches on the sidelines during the Browns game. O-lineman Broderick Jones actually ended up picking him up and carrying him away to defuse the situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 I think Tomlin was becoming very aware he was losing the lockerroom with Canada being there. Lot's of dissention. They had to make that move as kind of a hail mary on the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's happened before....can't remember anytime it's ended well. That was exactly my first thought - "oh, didn't the Dolphins under Brian Flores try that one year? I don't think it worked." Edit: 2021. They finished 9-8 and Flores was fired. Edited November 21, 2023 by Beck Water 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
